VIRGINIA CITY , Mont. , Aug. 1&-Spc- ( cial.-The ) most sensational Incident in connection with mining In the northwest for many a year occurred - curred ) ast week in this part of Montana. The news that came over the mountains one night caused one of the largest placer mine stampedes from this city that has oc- coned since the paimy days of Alder gulch. The report of gold being discovered in fabu- bus quantities on Moran creek , eight miles northeast of Virginia City , was the cause of the rush. 11. 1) . Young , George Myers. James McDecd and I ) . J. Fine left this city on a prospecting expedition early Wednesday - day morning , and on their return Wedncs- ( ia ) evening one of the part ) ' , II. .3. Fine , showed a bottle in which he had some fine. large gold dust , amounting to $2. stating that the same had been washed out while panning five or six Imans of dirt , and that the find was at Moran creek. The news flashed through the city like wildfire. Men , nomen and children at once became excited , and the rush for the new diggings statted , some on horseback , others in wagons and several on foot. Few delayed long enough to provide - vide themselves with bedding , provisions or the necessary tools , the only thought being to reach the scem.of action and locate a claim , Before midnight fifty people were on the creek. scattered from the head to the mouth , all busily engaged in digging prospect holes and panning the dirt , looking for gold , using for light bonfires , candles and lanterns ; some , not having any means of making a light , worked along in the dark , expecting the results in their pans to be large and bright enough to show for itself. Ily daylight not. a foot of ground on the entire stream was vacant. it all being 10- cated for placer mining purposes. Even the mountain sides , where to get water would be an Impossibillt ) ' , were located , and the location notices being jealously watched by the happy locators. for fear some one might jump them. The creek on which the claims were located is not more than five. miles in length , and there probably were not less than 200 claims located , which would necca- imitate a creek with a great many more miles In length to make all the claims hold gcod , the amount of terra firma being insufficient to accommodate all. Itmimiui mit Midnight. All night long newcomers were arriving and joining in the rush to secure a claim. In many places notices of location were posted within a few feet of one another. There probably was not a mile on the creek that there were less than twenty-five claims located. but this seemed to bother none , each claimant being positive his right was the best and paying no attention to the others. Only once did ill fate seem to stare the crowd in the face. This was occasioned when It was found that W. . . Clark and others had located a water right on the creek , which took ( ho entire bead , and that the course of the water uould be changed , but after a pow-wow being held it was decided this could not be done and work again went on as of old. When daylight came renewed vigor was instIlled into the veins of the prospectors and the panning for gold was entered into more enereticaily than ever. Not until a couple of.Jmurs after daylight , when a great deal of panplng had been done and no gold discovered , diii the crowd drop onto the fact that they had been sold ; In other words , they discovered that a joke had been perpetrated on them , and the report that the gold exhibited by Mr. Fine the night previous bad not been taken from Moran creek. but instead had been taken from the West Fork of the Madison , on the Gravelly range. More or less indignation exists with some over the affair , especially so with some who advised friends to join the rush , believing , as they did , that the gold came from the creek , and that there was a possible chance of a big strike to be made. Asida from the unfortunate trouble which arose between T. 3. Farrell of this city and Thomas Thextoa of the Madison valley , the excitement was enjoyed by all who participated - pated in it. and a better-natured , jollier crowd never was out , This is the third ox- cltcment over placer ground being dig- covered within the past month , but none of them was as large as the one Wednesday evening.

Ioniionermi Comlumetut t'poum CiTeet of % 'm'nr tin Nat immtinl Li Ic mutiti A Iumis , LONDON , Aug. 15.-The Times this morn- lag comments editorially upon the general universal recognition of the part which President McKinley has played throughout the war between the United States and Spain , and says : "If foreign observers might presume to have an opinion upon his conduct. it would probably he that President McKinley has kept bi finger constantly upon the national pulse and has known bow to stimulate and direct national thought without too markedly outrunning its move- meat. "Everything has been done in the open , every move has been discussed as a possibility - bility all over the United States before the government was Irrevocably committed one way or the other and the result of the cautious - tious , tentative policy Is that where he stands at this moment the preBldent has the whole American people at his back. "We do rot knott' that there can be any higher statesmanship for a president gos'- erning under the constitution of the United States. "It is noteworthy that while the Spaniards , who are usually regarded as chivalrous , ro- mantle and niediaeval , have turned first to the financial aspect of the situation , the Americans , who are usually supposed to he intensely practical , have as yet hardly given a thought to the financial or economic side of the question. Whtit occupies time Artier- iran people at this moment Is not the cost of the war , the value of their acquisitions or the balance of the profit and loss ac- count. but the moral result of the struggle and the nature of the Ideas which it stimu- lates. "Whether Bryaniam is dead or only sleeping - ing , whether the smaller issues of party. are superseded by large and worth ) ' cOfl- ceptions of national policy or only thrown for the time into ths background , there can be rio doubt that the ss'ar has had and will have a profound effect upon A.nerican ideas and aims. Net only baa it renovated the Idea of national unity Imparlej by the great civil struggle , but it has supplied that sense of contact with external forces which Is probably one of the most potent influencea in favor of maintaining the national spirit. "The Antilles themselves introduce a novel element into American life and open up questions upon which parties may differ greatly and worthily. This In itself is a gain and one which st'as more or less con- sclenttously sought when the war was un- derteken. The perilous unrest spoken of b' the New York Times was a real ax- tional evil , which sprang directly , so far as foreigners can judge , ( rota the disappearance - anco of clear , intelligible part ) ' Issues. That unrest. we may assume , has vanished anti been replaced by new anxieties or solid- tudes svhch ! may become acute , but are very unlIkely to become morhid. "Beyond the Antilles lies a more difficult - cult question-the PhIlippInes-and that question does not end with the Philippines themselves. These islands may ha taken just now as a symbol of American awakening - ing and of the entry of the renublic upon a new career which , Philippines or rio Philippines - ippines , it is henceforth bound to folio's' , " lISCIi.tItGLl S'l'IIAMSIIII' OFFICLIRS. llnt'lumg a lined 'Flume 'rrimmg Ii , unIt ! .Tngo anti R'ooii , QUEENSTOWN , Aug. 15.-i.
